Playstyle

This clan's theme is "stealth tactics" and "cloning". They specialize in superior calling multiple copies of their units from the deck at once, and returning to the bottom of the deck or moving to the hand at the end of the turn, which simulates how ninjas strike their target then disappear without being detected. This ninja theme is further improved upon with they keyword "Shadowstitch", which allows the player to chain effects and swift attacks in exchange for not hitting the opponent's vanguard, forcing the opponent to either guard and activate these effects, or take damage. The effects gained by cloning differ, but most gain power, the ability to attack from the back row, and the ability to grant "Boost" to grade 2 or greater units. Some units even benefit from being in certain circles.

Concept

This clan is based off of ninjas and dragons, which is apparent in their designs and playstyles. Despite being a clan of the Dragon Empire, the majority of the units are not dragons, but of other races such as demons, beasts and ghosts. Like it's counterpart Nubatama, the clan is heavily influenced by Japanese culture, with a brighter color scheme and a focus on wind and clones. Most of the units have "Stealth" in their titles, as well as a type of stealth, and a form of being, whether it be "Rogue", "Beast", "Fiend", or "Dragon". Many units have designs based off of the Muromachi period of Japan, as well as some kabuki influences. The inhabitants of this clan are demons, beasts, ghosts, and dragons.

Trivia

Murakumo (叢雲) in Japanese means "Gathering Clouds".

When Murakumo first appeared in the manga, they were initially depicted as being part of the Nubatama clan. They were changed to Murakumo upon its release, as it was expected that Nubatama would no longer be supported.
